Our McCune Family

Larry & Judy McCune
Larry and Judy settled in the Sandhills of North Carolina after Larry retired first from Monsanto and then from Flexsys in Akron, Ohio. Flexsys is the world's largest producer of chemicals for the rubber industry. They now live on beautiful Lake Auman in Seven Lakes West, which is a gated community, near West End, North Carolina. During more than 40 years of marriage they have lived in many places: Lima, Ohio; Cincinnati, Ohio; Skokie, Illinois; St. Louis, Missouri; Oxford, Alabama, St. Louis again, Clear Lake, Texas and then Akron, Ohio. After visiting friends at Lake Auman in Seven Lakes West, they knew this was the place of their dreams - Lake Auman is by far the best and most beautiful place they have ever lived.

Both are very active in the West End United Methodist Church. They are members of the Seven Lakes Sailing Club. Judy has recently had a near full-time job managing the family health care. Larry is active in the Moore County Concert Band, the Sandhills Community College Jazz Band and the American Heritage Band.

Marcele Fletcher (Judy's Mother)
Marcele and her late husband, Tom, grew up in Dunkirk, Ohio, but raised their daughter in nearby Lima.
